In Origin of Language, linguist Daniel L. Everett presents a comprehensive history of the evolution of human speech—from the emergence of the vocal apparatus to the development of over 7,000 distinct languages. Drawing on anthropology, neurology, and evolutionary biology, Everett explores topics such as the FOXP2 gene, gestural origins of communication, animal-language experiments (including his work with the Pirahã), and the social functions of grammar and semantics. Accessible yet scholarly, this book appeals to readers of popular science, linguistics books, and anthropology books
